From Times Wire Reports

The river had fallen to just below flood stage and was continuing to recede. But floating debris was still being carried downstream, and some roads near the river remained barricaded.
Storms on the southern Plains have claimed 11 lives in Texas since mid-June, and authorities were searching for two 20-year-old men whose sport utility vehicle was found submerged in a creek Thursday.
